No, it's never stupid to do what you want to do when you are on vacation. You might be doing something that other people think is stupid (as indicated on this post). But you should ignore any post that answers a subjective question objectively.

Uh, wait a minute. It might be stupid if you are expecting to be able to feed the monster. Like Sheila says, watch the weather and have an alternate plan. I'd be wary of answering Sheila's "why" question.

You can find many prettier/more atmospheric places nearer Edinburgh.FYI, the story about the monster is the same as the story about Sant Claus - its your father all the time.Monster hunters should also check out Loch Morar.(monsters name is Morag)
